Mentoring, Skill Coaching & Knowledge Solutions

In 1978, I began to develop Formalized Mentoring Programs to overcome the shortcomings of "do-your-own-thing" mentoring. I've helped over 150 organizations in business and education to collaboratively plan Programs that ensure intended benefits are produced for proteges, their mentors and the sponsoroing organization. This does not result from "Announcements" that simply encourage mentoring, or from partially-planned "Initiatives." After discovering this, I developed Mentoring for Results Partner Training and 20 customized mentoring materials to train over 20,000 mentor-protege partners to develop good relationships that achieve desired outcomes.

 

This latest book describes easy-to-understand conceptual models of Mentoring (e.g., my Situational Mentoring Model) plus Skill Coaching and Knowledge Solutions models. In Section 1, you'll learn the collaborative program planning process I facilitate to decide which conceptual model(s) a particular group of mentoring partners will utilize within a formalized Program. In Section 2, you'll learn how Partner Training produced benefits that satisfy the business case for starting the Program.
